Rishu is riding in a hot air balloon. After reaching a point P, he spots a car parked at Bon the ground at an angle of depression of `30^@`. The balloon rises further by 50 metres and now he spots the same car at an angle of depression of 45o and a lorry parked at B' at an angle of depression of `30^@`. (Use `sqrt3` = 1.73)

The distance AB on the ground is

124.2 m

118 m

171.4 m

142.6 m

Rishu is riding in a hot air balloon. After reaching a point P, he spots a car parked at Bon the ground at an angle of depression of 30^@ . The balloon rises further by 50 metres and now he spots the same car at an angle of depression of 45o and a lorry parked at B' at an angle of depression of 30^@ . (Use sqrt3 = 1.73) The measurement of Rishu facing vertically is the height. Distance is defined as the measurement of car/lorry from a point in a horizontal direction. If an imaginary line is drawn from the observation point to the top edge of the car/lorry, a triangle is formed by the vertical, horizontal and imaginary line. If the height of the balloon at point P is 'h' m and distance AB is 'x' m, then 'x' and 'h' are related as:

Angle Of Depression

Which are the angles of depression?

The hot air balloon rises because it is

From a point 200 m above a lake , the angle of elevation of a cloud is 30^@ and the angle of depression of its reflection in take is 60^@ then the distance of cloud from the point is
